DORSET MODEL SOLDIERS CASTINGS August 2021 The Dorset Model Soldier Company, Nyetimber, 35a Norfolk Farm Road, Woking, Surrey, GU22 8LF United Kingdom www.imperialminiatures.co.uk [email protected] 01483 855757 VAT Number : 371463301 DORSET SOLDIERS CASTINGS PAINTED FIGURE collectors might like to know that painted figures and sets can also be produced from the castings lists. ABOUT DORSET SOLDIERS Dorset Soldier castings are approximately 54mm tall and cast in white metal. Please ask the exact height if you want figures to fit in with other soldiers in your collection. Castings are supplied straight from the mould and will need flash cleaning with a knife and file before painting. I can quote to clean and assemble figures for you, if you prefer this. As many of the figures are made to collectors’ own specifications, the style of figures varies from slight, traditional toys in the old ‘Britains’ format to detailed, chunky, near-models. I have tried to reflect this in the descriptions. Please contact me if you have an idea you wish to explore. Spare parts are available to repair broken old soldiers or convert figures in the lists. Painted figures can be produced from any figure in the lists or designed for you. Due to the lead content in the figures I do not supply figures to children under 14 years old. CONTACTING DORSET MODEL SOLDIERS: By phone: 01483 855757 . I am always pleased to hear from you and offer any help I can.
